As for the album being bad, I'd disagree. Not all songs appeal to me immediately but an album containing songs such as Namaste, Material, Kingdom, Irish Maiden and Planet Rain cannot be called bad. At all.

On a side note, anyone know the lyrics of the distorted vocal part after "Life is nothing! / This life is nothing!" ?

I dont think the album is bad at all. i really love it. I just got the vibe from this forum that its not his most popular. Also its one of the lesser known ones amongst people i have found. Your totally right though, its amazing. Planet rain is an amazing song. i like the album because its refreshing sometimes when i overdose on the other stuff.

I totally agree with you, 100%. I found myself loving that song a lot too. It just really grabs you with the last few lines: "Rain is one of earth and sun for you and me and everyone. The move is on, the way is long, the pain is here but still we carry on."
